"My client wanted to go from her old strawberry blonde to something fiery," says  Sami Skinner (@samsonite) of Rio Hair Studio in Jacksonville, Florida. "I love creating red heads and creating a stable pallet is so important."

Here Skinner shares the HOW TO:

Step 1: Treat hair with Redken Extreme CAT to create stabilization for the red. Dry the hair completely.

Step 2: Apply Redken Fusion equal parts 7cc+8go+orange hi fusion and 20v to zone 1.

Step 3: Blend the same formula + one half ounce of clear and apply to zone 2 and 3.

Step 4: Process for 35 minutes.

Step 5: Rinse and apply  equal parts clear and orange in Redken Shades EQ gloss.

Step 6: Process for 20 minutes. Rinse and apply Redken extreme+color extend Chemistry System with 3.5 phix.
